Stroke remains one of the leading causes of disability and death worldwide — yet it is largely preventable. For healthcare professionals and pharma brand managers alike, the most powerful approach lies in early identification of at-risk individuals. Enter the 10-Year Stroke Risk Calculator — a scientifically backed tool that predicts a person’s risk of stroke over the next decade.
But having a risk calculator isn’t enough. It must be used actively, intuitively, and in the right setting. That’s where the SYNQOL Health Screen by Indigital Technologies comes in — transforming clinic waiting areas into proactive screening hubs.
What Is a 10-Year Stroke Risk Calculator?
The calculator evaluates a range of factors, including:
- Age
- Blood pressure
- Smoking history
- Diabetes status
- Cholesterol levels
- Heart rhythm issues like atrial fibrillation
- Physical inactivity
By combining these, it estimates the likelihood of experiencing a stroke within 10 years. This helps doctors classify patients into:
- Low Risk: Less than 10%
- Moderate Risk: 10–20%
- High Risk: Over 20%
Such risk stratification is essential for guiding timely interventions and educating patients about lifestyle changes or medical treatments.
Why It Matters in OPD Clinics
Clinics across India face common hurdles:
- Limited consultation time
- Patients unaware of underlying risks
- Missed opportunities for early prevention
The SYNQOL Health Screen addresses all of this in one elegant solution.
How SYNQOL Powers Stroke Risk Awareness
While patients wait, SYNQOL lets them take a 10-Year Stroke Risk Assessment via a simple touchscreen interface. It requires no extra manpower, and the results are instantly available to the doctor. Alongside the calculator, patients view short videos explaining:
- Stroke symptoms and warning signs
- How hypertension and diabetes affect stroke risk
- Preventive lifestyle tips
This pre-education primes the patient for meaningful dialogue with the doctor, turning the consultation into a focused, data-driven experience.
Pharma Brand Advantage
For pharmaceutical brands in the neurology or cardiovascular space, SYNQOL provides:
- Contextual brand messaging within stroke awareness videos
- Higher acceptance of preventive therapies like antihypertensives or antiplatelets
- Visibility in a trusted clinical environment
When a patient sees their personalized stroke risk and watches clear explanations, they are far more likely to accept prescribed treatments — improving compliance and brand impact.
Doctor-Patient Synergy
From a clinician’s perspective, SYNQOL enhances workflow by:
- Saving time during diagnosis
- Offering visual tools for explaining risk
- Documenting patient participation in shared decision-making
Doctors gain risk data without spending extra time, and patients walk out better informed and more compliant.
Real Value, Real Impact
Imagine a 55-year-old man, unaware of his borderline blood pressure and smoking-related risks. He walks into the clinic, completes the stroke risk calculator on SYNQOL, and sees a 17% 10-year risk. By the time he meets the doctor, he’s ready to listen, act, and commit.
This isn’t imagination — it’s happening every day in clinics powered by SYNQOL Health Screen.
Conclusion
The 10-Year Stroke Risk Calculator isn’t just a number — it’s a gateway to prevention. And SYNQOL makes it actionable, understandable, and integrated into clinical care.
For pharma leaders looking to drive stroke prevention and for clinics aiming to modernize patient engagement, SYNQOL Health Screen by Indigital Technologies is the solution that connects risk to results.
Smarter risk. Smarter response. Smarter outcomes — with SYNQOL.
